Throughputs are basically the major thing most parks care about, and put first before anything else, including guest interaction...Indeed, some parks focus on guest interaction (see Chessie) more so than this, as seems to be the case with Thorpe and can be seen by how they allow the staff dress and act... But if they cannot do it they cannot do it... Cos if a TL spots it, even if it's in the guest's best interests, the staff get bollocked for it... So it's not as simple as people think...

Oh most defo see you on the train :DYou WERE brunette if I recall... Though that WAS two years ago...

Enough of that now...I shall defo pop up to the 10:30 meet up tomoz... After a ride on Vampire of course... See you all tomorrow...

Then (if I was working on it) would tell you in no uncertain terms can you can get off my ride or I'll get security down...From the staff point of view, these things can't be light, and since the park's want throughputs, throughputs, throughputs, if there isn't an easier and quicker method of draining the boats, then chucking people on them is the best thing for the staff to get the throughputs they are meant to get...

^My problem with Tidal Wave is that it gets you TOOOOO wet... So isn't really that rideable unless it's a day like today, which of course are pretty rare in the UK...Loggers is more rideable in the colder parts of the season, so it just edges it... Especially with the double drop... Best drop in the UK by far...

LOL...Just... LOL... I would go on, but that should be kept to the Colossus topic...Loggers Leap though... Bless it... It's still a good ride... Probs the best water ride at the park...

OMG! God dammit... How will I cope today?

I felt a great disturbance in the Coaster community, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

I know, poor grammar makes me sick too...

Pointy Teeth!Opening on the 16th, they need to get the theming together quick then

If this was Coasterforce, she would've already been asked out by at least 5 males and 2 females...Fortunately on here, 90% of people are gay... And of the 10% of straight people 90% are in relationships

CONVERSE! Bloody hell I couldn't for the life of me remember what they're called...Yeah, they don't mix well with water...

Tbh, this looks funky... Nice new restaurant, the Disko looks massive, and it provides some added colour in an otherwise dingy part of the world...Amanda's still a bitch though ¬¬

Buy trainers? Just nice basic comfortable ones?

Jesus, I can barely remember the times when I went straight to Loggers...Loggers being the biggest ride at the park

THIS...Physically throwing up = Call in Sick...

Duel opened at 1pm?I'm sure as hell I went on it at like, 12 :)Yeah there were a few odd breakdowns here and there, Skyride, Rita, Rapids and Oblivion all had issues that I saw, but all opened again (Blivvy was down for about 10 minutes)...Also, no Hex? Poor show old chap... If there's time for Charlie there's time for Hex...

Looks like Hayley Williams...

Went on it again today with my Mum who had never been on it before...She really enjoyed it, and I realised the high amount of airtime the actual drop component brings... It is actually a rather fun ride really, and it's certainly grown on me and bedded in more than Rita ever will...Plus the launch

Well, many on here were thinking that the actors were very hot stuff this year...

I'm not going to go through this all again...At least you get media coverage... Drogba so much as sneezes and you get a Sky Sports News report on it...

Thirteen does do what it's designed to do... And be a good enough coaster for the families to replace Corkscrew... With a very likely higher throughput to boot...I enjoy it to be fair, as I wasn't taken in by all the hype and never expected anymore than a family coaster, and also, the drop is actually very well done even if I would feel the ride would have been better served with said drop nearer the beginning to set off the ride rather than the middle...Plus, it has the best launch in the park <3

And THIS has a storyline?Aside from the probable obvious "Stuff's going down, you need to escape blah, blah, blah" (Not a Thorpe based dig, but worldwide)...

It's still outrageously CUTE

If people think Tidal Wave's water is dirty they should go to Flamingoland and do their spillwater...THAT IS DIRTY!
